When the wires are connected to the terminals of the battery,what causes electric current in the current? Resistance Conductor Voltage What is the voltage source? battery light bulb wire What is the conductor of this circuit? battery wire light bulb What are two ways you could you alter the wire to increase the resistance in the electric circuit? Match each word with its definition. electric current the continuous flow of electric charges through a material. insulator material through which charge cannot easily flow. voltage the difference in electrical potential per charge between two points in a circuit. resistance the measure of how difficult it is for charges to flow through a material. conductor material through which charge can easily flow. electric circuit a complete,unbroken path through which electric charges flow. Slides convert gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy. What do circuits convert electric potential energy into? light heat both a and b How does electric current differ from static electricity? What unit is used for the rate of current? Joules Kelvin Amp All electrical devices contain electric acid gears circuits motors
